To remind you/and track this... since you have animations off lol. I know I was that guy with windows 10.

I see the problem,

The animation is not played when using the SetWindowPlacement function, however it is played properly when using the PostMessage technique,

So for some functions such as snaping on the top, I cannot let the animation play because it locks the mouse which can be annoying, same for the auto-remaximize and same for the right click while moving option, however tor the maximize action / doubleclick maximize/restore, it is fine and integrate better in Windows.

Use this version of hooks.dll: hooks_x86_64b.zip hooks_i386.zip

I downloaded the second file and I can no longer enable AS... Edit: Nevermind, the first one worked. Got confused with x86 and x64 ver, and yes maximize works perfectly. Aero snap doesn't work as you said.

Will you be doing more for enabling animations in future or was this all?

As much as I can, but for top snapping, I cannot afford this because of mouse lockup, also I need more control over the window position because it can happen that a window is snapped to the top of a monitor but is actually on another monitor, in this case I need the SetWindowPlacement function that does not allow the animations. so in term of maximization this seems to be the current status. more may come in the future.
